I’ve been kinda testing things out lately with how often I post. Since I started blogging about 5 years ago, I have posted three times a week; Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The past week I’ve gone down to two times a week, one on Tuesday and on Thursday. I’d love to know what you think. So please send me an email at joyfulhealthyeats@gmail.com to give me some feedback on posting times … OR if your little heart fancies a special recipe this holiday season let me know!

Ok. Moving on to today’s post. Today we are talking a Brussel Sprout Salad people!
What is a Brussel Sprout Salad?
It’s a salad made out of shredded Brussels Sprouts. The sprouts aren’t cooked, they are raw. You can buy a bag of the sprouts already “shredded” or sliced very thin in the grocery store (ahem… easy button) or you can put whole sprouts in a food processor and pulse a couple times until your sprouts are at the desired size. From there, you can add anything you want into your brussel sprout salad!

This Cranberry Apple Brussel Sprout Salad is my ode to fall and a must have on your thanksgiving table!
It’s filled with shredded brussels sprouts, kale (that I massaged with salt to make it tender for salad), cranberries, fresh granny smith apples, red onion, roasted butternut squash, goat cheese, and pepitas. All of the flavors in this salad go so well together, it’s definitely one dreamy bite. There’s sweet, tangy, salty, creamy… it’s divine. And the dressing is an apple cider vinegar base with a slight hint of cinnamon!
It’ll blow your mind. Guaranteed!
